What skaters said on Reddit
this is what talked me into it. [VIDEO] After seeing that and realizing he was just like any one of us really shook me up. Been wearing one for a few weeks now even street skating and honestly it’s not bad to get used to.
Ehhhh, I dunno about that. This dude [VIDEO] was doing a trick he had done a hundred times and "knew how to fall". Not worth it at all.
